Model selection, hypothesis testing, and risks of condemning analytical tools
Article Abstract:
Analysts must make an informed choice from all available strategies employing each in contexts where they are most informative since application of a single analytical strategy in all circumstances is inappropriate. Further, model selection is an effective strategy to distinguish among candidate models based on data and where there is insufficient information available to formulate a strong set of candidate models, hypothesis testing is recommended.
